[KOHL 015]

Maxime Corbeil-Perron draws inspiration from the instrumental tradition and natural energetic phenomena to create a personal, abstract, and lively sound world. The Montreal-based composer divides his time between the new music scene, experimental film and the local underground scene.

His music has been awarded first prize in the Jeu de temps / Times Play (JTTP) competition (Canada, 2011), a special mention and medal of the Senato della Repubblica Italiana at the Città di Udine competition (Italy, 2012) and the second prize from the Destellos Foundation competition (Argentina, 2012).
His video GHOSTLY and his mixed-media piece Vertiges (for tape, siren organ and live electronics) have both recently been awarded 3rd place (ex-aequo) at the 2013 Musicworks International Electronic Music Contest.

Since 2012, his work has been presented across America, Europe and North-Africa.

His work has been distributed by Taukay Edizione Musicali, Vox Novus, Hardcore Jewellery and Kohlenstoff Records.

Maxime graduated with high honours from the Conservatoire de Musique de Montréal, with a Master¹s degree in electroacoustic composition.
